Grounding Bracket

by | Mar 8, 2022

This bracket is so tiny that we designed a vacuum system to remove it from the progressive die. It’s made from beryllium copper that is heat-treated and tin-plated. The part has to provide enough spring to ground a circuit to the enclosure. The customer tried outsourcing, but the Chinese manufacturer couldn’t produce the part to print.

Ajax produced the part to spec, and we use a Minnesota-based source for heat treating and plating. The result: the customer gets the desired quality and saves operating expenses due to a streamlined supply chain.
